"Koch Plans to Make Redistricting Personal"

"Last year,Edward I. Kochplaced automated telephone calls to voters on behalf of scores of candidates who signed his pledge to support redrawing Congressional and legislative districts in an independent, nonpartisan manner. Now Mr. Koch, the former New York City mayor, is picking up the telephone again, but with a very different tone. In the coming weeks, he will record so-called robo calls to the constituents of state legislators whom he deems to have reneged on their redistricting pledge."
